Honestly thought this was a snarky Tron reference at first. Then I realized this is Lemmy and not reddit and so looked it up. Very interesting, but not sure how that helps it do math better.

I think it’s hilarious that you think that a multimillion dollar over engineered autocorrect is gonna somehow become sentient and destroy the world. It can’t even do math correctly. 😂

Is there something special about that date?

The part that makes me really laugh is that this mouth breather was replying to Hank Green. Like, Tyson is an overbearing know it all, so I can see people being into trying to “debate” him so that can use his arrogance to justify their dumb beliefs. But Green is a very ground level science communicator who can always bring these kinds of idiotic arguments down to earth and destroy them with plain logic.

They only show their true colors when the feel that it is safe for them to do so. So this says more about Twitch and our current society than about this asshole.

Nah, that’s just going back to my original point. Why I commented in this thread at all. Some people were acting like Lemmy was dead cause .ml devs were douche bags.

My point is that .ml is becoming less and less relevant to Lemmy as a whole as time goes on and as more users join the fediverse. New instances are always good but running down perfectly good ones like Lemmy.world is very regressive and that kind of behavior is what I left reddit to get away from.

Not all instances of Lemmy are run by tankies. Many are run by just Linux enthusiasts.

I think you have misunderstood something. I do not agree with .ml people(tankies and such). And the issue is whether or not a person can just ignore their rantings and simply enjoy Lemmy.world

But the Chinese government could be spying on you if you bought a Chinese manufactured car!!

P.S. for bonus points, does anyone know where most GM automobiles are currently being manufactured?

I’m quite aware of enshittifacation. And, though the word is new, the concept is not. It was most recently called “planned obsolescence” and I think older folks just called it “trashy new stuff” or something folksy like that. But that’s harder to apply to the amorphous entity that is the Internet and the economy that’s been built around it. Don’t fall for the doomsday cult of “it’s all just going to shit anyway so let’s only care about ourselves”. That’s how we got Baptists, Seventh Day Adventists, and Mormons (among so many others).

Well the hatred for the ads I get. Not just cuz people don’t want to deal with ads in their content. But YouTube’s algorithm or whatever it is that decides what ad you get to see too often targets the wrong people for the wrong things. Or you get a 2 to 4 minute unskipable ad for a 10 minute video. It can be frustrating.

There must be something messed up with your Google search cause googling Lemmy gets me Motorhead first and then either lemmy.org or lemmy.world plus some wikipedia explainers, I don’t even see a link to lemmy.ml even after 2 pages of results.

I have not found it hard at all to just ignore the .ml devs and people in general. Why is this such an issue for literally anyone?

Meh, I decided to just pop for Premium. I realized that of the online streaming services, YouTube is the one I use the most. And Premium gives me access to YTMusic as well as GMM which was paywalled back when Premium started. And all for the same basic price as Netflix, Amazon, or Hulu which I barely use and therefore dropped.

How’s that on mobile? Oh, right. It isn’t.

We need real solutions.

Chromium does a lot of heavy lifting to fix problems with websites which enables certain web developers to be lazy.

Yeah, this is part of the new Reaganomics I like to call AIconomics. The goal isn’t to produce a good product, the goal to make something flashy that tech billionaires want to throw cash at. It’s not unlike crypto. Crypto has literally no actual value yet people are shitting money into bitcoins of every type in hopes that one will hit it big. Meanwhile tech billionaires keep minting new ones to entice new suckers every other week. The tech billionaires want you hooked on AI so you’ll give up your private info that they can sell to each other so they can cash in, the software companies are investing their time and resources into making AI LLMs in order to get tech billionaires to give them money. It’s a viscous capitalist circle. Only thing that will stop it is heavy regulation. But with Republicans in charge that will absolutely never happen. Trump practically made his entire cabinet out of billionaires and corporate shills. And too many Democrats gave them the thumb up, so don’t count of Dems doing a whole lot to stall the big tech chokehold on everything either.

Bwahahahah

I locked that shit out fucking day one. Fuck Gemini.
